Unit 1.4

Fourthspace is based at unit 1.4, 1-5 Vyner Street in the heart of London’s contemporary creative district. Vyner Street is a hub of architects, artists, designers and creative industries. The first thursday of every month, the work of these studios opens to the public. This street party is known as the first thursdays monthly exhibition.

This is Fourthspace’s fourth space.

Unit 1.4 is a large studio space in a converted warehouse on Vyner Street. Fourthspace manage the stdio and let space to Upstyler, Marcos Villalba and Ellis Miller. Beyond the walls of the studio is a colourful array of aspiring practices including Vector Foiltec and Public Works. The close proximity and density of studios leads to successful collaborations and serendipity.

Unit 1.4 has evolved over the three years that Fourthspace have managed the studio. Previous tenants include Zak Kyes. When Steve and Paolo first occupied the studio, the space was basic and without services.

Steve and Paolo have undertaken extensive renovation, creating a creative hub based around a large open plan studio.

The serendipity often happens over a bowl of freshly cooked pasta, served at Ombra. Ombra is the local Venetian Bacaro at the end of Vyner Street. The restaurant is co-owned by Steve and Paolo.
